New York (PRWEB)September 18, 2013

Epstein Becker Green and EBG Advisors are sponsoring a three-part webinar series focusing on emerging trends in population health. The presentations will offer participants informative and insightful guidance on how population health strategies are transforming the health care paradigm and explore key aspects of emerging as the industry moves towards the management and integrated delivery systems such as accountable care organizations (ACOs).

The lead off session will challenge many of the pre-existing notions of how to best communicate medical information to consumers, patients, and their families. This informative and insightful presentation is entitled, “Consumer Perspective on Health Care Delivery—Challenging Pre-Existing Notions and Navigating the New Landscape,” and will feature noted health care systems communication expert, Chuck Alston, Senior Vice President and Director of Public Affairs at MSLGROUP, Washington, D.C.

This complimentary webinar is scheduled for September 24, 2013 at 12:00 p.m. EST. To register for this webinar, click here.

“Communicating effectively is essential to achieving the clinical and business goals within the U.S. health care system,” notes Alston. “With the expanding emphasis on population health interventions, now is the time to better promote more effective messaging to targeted groups and individuals. Many providers and other health care professionals do not fully understand how to bridge the ‘communication gap’ between the experts and patients, family members and others, who are often confused.”

Alston, a specialist in health care systems communication, will share key insights from focus groups and his national experience on the most effective methods to communicate with consumers/patients to promote shared decision making.

In addition to Alston’s presentation, two other webinars are planned. All three webinars delve into key aspects of the emerging population health paradigm. To register for any of the free webinars in the series, click here.
